Our Pick: Olin and the Moon, Marvelous Toy, Next of Kin, Gypsy River Haunts @ Silver Lake Lounge (Free!)
Tonight is the first Monday of the New Year and that means you've got a slew of free residencies to choose from. Echo Park-based singer-songwriter Robert Francis (LAist Interview, Review) will be kicking things off at the Echo with Highland Park's own experimental rockers Seasons. It's certainly worth noting that famed acoustic troubadour Pete Yorn will be playing guitar in Francis' backing band. Long Beach-based singer-songwriter Rocco Deluca (LAist Review) is slated to headline Spaceland. And, lastly, local MC Kenan Bell will be taking on Hyperion Tavern for the month. But we strongly suggest heading over to the Silver Lake Lounge to catch the opening night of indie folk-rockers Olin & the Moon's (LAist Interview) residency. LAist favorites Marvelous Toy are slated to open the show.
